on the part of the united states in this part of the world, and turning our eye away from governments that could be illegitimate or failed states that invite either, you know, terrorists or authoritarian regimes to take root? >> well, there's not a lot of patience for the requirements of understanding here in washington. what secretary clinton said reflected a deep problem, not just in foreign policy but domestic policy, when she said what difference does it make? it's the same type of thing we see on all policies. it's an unwillingness to really bore down and understand the root causes of failures and successes. and that's why i think we see our foreign policy going in a lot of directions. it doesn't seem to be coherent. it sends signals of weakness. we don't understand what north korea really is doing right now. it is not just to provoke us, but it's a product demonstration for iran and other countries that want to see if these things work. we know north korea wants to sell them. so i think there is a perception of american weakness. but our problem here is the failure to really und

states senate. a remarkable figure. the question now, of course, is what next? >> i give him a lot of credit for reaching out to his formal rival for the democratic nomination, trusting her to be the secretary of state. she's done an excellent job over the last four years. she'll rest a little bit, write a book, do some good deeds. i don't think this is the final chapter in her political life. >> there's no question it's not the final chapter. the question is, what is the next chapter or what is in the next chapter as plural. if she says she wants to remember what it's like to not be tired, that's going to take a while. but within months, you know the political group is going to come to her and say, madam secretary, mrs. clinton, choose your title. yours is for the taking if you want to run. her number one goal is to empower women around the world. someone is going to give her a pretty compelling case in just a few months. you can be the first female president of the united states. it's going to be

states senate. if i am confirmed, one of the first things that i intend to do is sit down with senator menendez and senator corker and invite all the members of the committee to come together, hopefully at a time when there's no interruption and we can actually dig in and talk and talk about how we can have a constructive dialogue and collegial relationship. because even the unique oversight role that the committee plays, the challenges in the world are so enormous that we would do our country a disservice if we didn't identify the ways that we can help each other to confront a unique set of questions globally. if you confirm me, i would take office as secretary proud that the senate is in my blood. but equally proud that so too is foreign service. my father's work under presidents, both republican and democrat, took me and my siblings around the world for a personal journey of the sacrifices and commitment that the men and women make every day on behalf of america. i wish every one in the country c
